These rosettes have :heretofore been made from ribbon or other material easily injured by wet or wear.

My invention consists in the Aproduction of a rosette, as a new article of manufacture, from layers or thicknesses of felt, the edges out or oruanleuted in any desirable manner.

To form the rosette as seen in fig. 1, I out from felt the three pieces a b o, diminishing in size, and the edge ornamented or shaped iu any desirable manner, then place one piece over another, until the several thicknesses are properly arranged, 'andi secure them together by any desirable ornament upon the outer surface, preferring one on which prongs are formed upon the under side, so as to pass through the several thicknesses, and the prongs bent down, and the same are used to secure therosette to whatever it is desired to attach it.
